Today, my parents finally invited my boyfriend over for dinner. Everything was going great until my mother asked him his profession. He stuffed his mouth full of lasagna, snorted, and then responded, "I clean shit for a living." FML

"Well, I say! Do you clean specific kinds of shit? Human AND animal, or just one of those? Cause our bathroom? Whew! We could use a shit cleaner 'round here." is what I would've said if I were OP's parents. xD

And if you were the OP's parents, I'd ask you how in the heck you were his parents. Man... I just can't figure it out. I mean if it were asexual reproduction, you'd still be a single parent. Same with self fertilization. It's mind boggling, really.

keeper or ex? dun dun Duuuunnnn!

I admire his great passion for his work... ah it was truly beautiful how he displayed his emotion and care with such vivid details... you hear a snort... but I hear a man's love and fulfillment for his place of employment... try to see the light OP and the true greatness of the man you are with...

At least he has a job. And to everyone saying "dump him" in some way or another because of his table manners, poor guy was just surprised when the question was asked. Not everyone can have wonderful composure in front of parent's. OP, if you really like him, who cares what happened? You know him and we don't.

Well, the bad table manners and saying "shit" at the table in front of her parents would be enough for me. Dude gotta know how to act.

oh please I'm sick of "at least he has a job". whenever I needed to I found work. even sat home just buying and reselling stuff cuz I didn't want to work, and when I got tired of it I found work right away. in fact while I was on one job I got called for an interview fir another. so stop whining.

@40 Cool story bro, but it doesn't always work out so perfectly with other people. @19 Still, he could have found a better way to say it. If he was trying to joke around and added more to it, making the parents laugh or whatever, then yeah, the OP could let it slide. If, however, he just snorted and said it that way, then let it be the end of that, then that's a problem. I'd have hoped by now that most people have been taught as children what is and what is not appropriate behavior at table.

Oh, it can be done. I saw it on Mythbusters.

You can polish a turd but it's still a turd.

As the saying goes in the advertising industry, 'You can't polish a turd, but you can roll it in glitter...'

Now, Isn't that charming? How much does he earn a month? I bet he earns a "SHITLOAD" of money! Ahaha! No? ...

If the boyfriend would just have a 3 way with OP and her mom I'm sure they'd be able to come to terms.

I totally agree with 19 mayb he was just surprised so don't dump him cus that's a stupid reason
